Last night my husband and I watched the first episode of the second season of “This is Us.” A part of the story line was about adopting. As it unfolded, his wife recommended that they adopt unwanted teenagers in their community versus a newborn baby from another country.
This made me extremely emotional. I am a big believer that we cannot live our best life with any regrets, and part of being able to do that is to come to peace with decisions that are made.
There is only one time in my life where I felt like a “higher power” spoke to me. That voice said that I was meant to adopt unwanted teenagers. For reasons that don’t really matter to the story, that never happened. And I thought I was at peace with the decision.
Last nights episode made me extremely emotional. Which told me that I have a regret I need to work through. I have to become at peace with the decision that has been made. To be able to do this, I have to look at my purpose, vision, and values. I have to see how decisions I have made have served me greatly.
I look forward as the season unfolds and how I heal myself.
